Thermodynamics CourseAbstractCan online labs improve student learning in comparison to hands-on labs? Do they have space inour curriculum for online and in-person lab offerings? Can some of the lessons learned apply toin-person lab offerings? Can online labs improve the sense of inclusion and belonging?These questions are addressed in the paper. The paper describes the five labs conducted 100%online in a 3rd-year Introduction to Thermodynamics course in a mid-size comprehensiveuniversity’s mechanical engineering program. The course comprises 200 minutes of lectures and125 minutes of labs per week in a 10-week term. The lectures are offered in a flipped format;lectures are pre-recorded, and class periods are used for problem-solving and
